More on L'Arc
My guide only covers the first four albums. As for the later albums, the five songs I recommend most are:

I. HEART's fate - Best. Song. Ever. Words can't do justice. Just listen.

II. RAY's Ibara no Namida - Painfully poignant. Calm and subdued, and builds up towards the torrent of emotions released in the chorus. This is one of the few songs that I really recommend you read the translated lyrics to. They're as beautiful as the song itself.

III. HEART's Loreley - The solemn tone of this song, and the added saxophone (played by Hyde), makes this one of the only L'Arc~en~Ciel songs that can be described as bluesy. Highly recommended.

IV. ARK's Butterfly's Sleep - This one is really interesting, and is also one of their least known songs. The curious instrumentation creates an Egyptian feel, and further intensifies the song's dark tone.

V. REAL's A silent letter - A beautiful ballad-like song. The majority of the song seems lost in a somber, dream-like state, until the final chorus.
